Convert tonne to grain

Learn how to convert 1 tonne to grain step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (t o n n e) = x (g r a i n)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(k i l o g r a m)

Left side: 1.0 (t o n n e) = 907.18474 (k i l o g r a m) = 907.18474 (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (g r a i n) = 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5} (k i l o g r a m) = 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5} (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (t o n n e) = x (g r a i n)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 907.18474 \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5} \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 907.18474 \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5} \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 907.18474 \cdot (k g) = x \times 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5} \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

907.18474 = x \times 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5}

Switch sides

x \times 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5} = 907.18474

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{6.479891 \times 10^{- 5}})

x \times 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5} \times \frac{1.0}{6.479891 \times 10^{- 5}} = 907.18474 \times \frac{1.0}{6.479891 \times 10^{- 5}}

Cancel

x \times 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5} \times \frac{1.0}{6.479891 \times 10^{- 5}} = 907.18474 \times \frac{1.0}{6.479891 \times 10^{- 5}}

Simplify

x = \frac{907.18474}{6.479891 \times 10^{- 5}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 5}} can be rewritten to 10^{5}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{5} \times 907.18474}{6.479891}

Solve

x

x = 14000000 = 1.4 \times 10^{7}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (t o n n e) = 1.4 \times 10^{7} (g r a i n)
